Waters Corporation announce that its customer Advantar Laboratories, Inc. has successfully completed its rollout of Waters® Empower 3 Chromatography Software. The 21CFR Part 11 compliant-ready software will play a key role at Advantar and with its new Method Remediation Services group to meet increased demand by pharmaceutical and contract manufacturing customers for converting legacy HPLC methods to Ultra Performance LC® (UPLC®) methods, which offer greater speed, resolution and sensitivity.
Advantar selected Empower 3 software to control its expanding portfolio of gas chromatography (GC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and UPLC systems with advanced detectors including Waters single and tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry (MS/MS), photodiode array and ultraviolet detectors. Waters Empower 3 chromatography software bridges the various technologies at Advantar and enables the company to scale its analytical lab resources efficiently.
³Our decision to go with Waters was driven by several key factors including requests from customers. By adding UPLC technology to our lab and creating the Method Remediation Services group, we can support clients who need to develop a UPLC method or rapidly convert multiple methods from HPLC to UPLC simultaneously for large and small molecules alike,² said Advantar Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Brandon Griffin.
